Are the cities and their infrastructure ready?
We come back this year with a new edition of the event to discuss several issues: what is the state of smart city development, what are the future projects on smart city field, what are the needs and what solutions are offered by the private companies.
We will discuss again about how a city can become smart, how can a city to put the technological force at the service of economic development in order to offer a better life for its citizens and to save resources.
Smart City is a project based on the development of partnerships with associations, companies, R&D institutes, universities and, last but not least, the volunteers who will jointly contribute to building smart cities and increasing the quality of citizens’ lives
